ACL is what you need. Can you provide more information. Do you want to
assign for the hole department just 8KB/s or each client in the
Department.Anyways here is an example that I used once.

# these go in the ACL's
# dpeA 10 IP's
ACL depA src 10.0.0.5-10.0.0.14

# depB 10 IP's
ACL depB src 10.0.0.15-10.0.0.24

# restNET 30 IP's
ACL restNET src 10.0.0.25-10.0.0.54
# end of ACL for delay pools

# delay pools are for 3 groups
delay_pools 3

# delay pools for deparetment A 6 KB/s per client
delay_class 1 2
deay_parameters 1 -1/-1 6000/6000
delay_access 1 allow depA
delay_access 1 deny all

# delay pools for deparetment B 8 KB/s per client
delay_class 2 2
deay_parameters 1 -1/-1 8000/8000
delay_access 1 allow depB
delay_access 1 deny all

# delay pools for restNET B 15 KB/s per client
delay_class 3 2
deay_parameters 1 -1/-1 15000/15000
delay_access 1 allow restNET
delay_access 1 deny all
# end

Also this might be usefull if you want for eg. to assign 32KB/s for
depA with each client a maximum 8KB/s and a "burst" of 256KB then you
need to modify delay_parameters.
eg. delay_parameters 1 32000/32000 8000/256000

Please excuse my english and if you need more help/examples I well
gladly provide it ( if my boss would allow me to surf the web that is
